THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE PICTURE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO MARKS OR STAINS ANYWHERE ON EITHER SIDE. THE BASE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE JET BLACK TYPEFACE IS CLEAR AND UNRUBBED AND THEREFORE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY ZERO  SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE AND STILL RESIDUAL SHARDS OF VINYL IN A ND AROUND THE HOLES

THE VINYL

THE RECORDS GLEAM LIKE NEW AND COULDN'T LOOK ANY BETTER. ALL OF THE ORIGINAL LUSTRE HAS BEEN RETAINED. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE MARKS OR ANY SIGNS OF HANDLING ON THE DISCS IN DAYLIGHT AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE ARE ONLY A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

THE LP PLAYS THROUGH BRILLIANTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS. IN PARTICULAR THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION TO THE SOUND AT ANY POINT.

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND NO LOUD CLICKS AT ANY POINT

THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF VINYL NOISE OR STATIC ANYWHERE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE TOTALLY SILENT.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST FIRST PRESS AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD TO PERFECTION

I HEARD PERHAPS THREE TINY STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAYTHROUGH

BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF

A HIGH GRADE COLLECTIBLE THAT PLAYS TO AN INCREDIBLE MINT  STANDARD

AN ABSOLUTE STUNNER

THE SLEEVE

 SEMI LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE

THE FRONT SURFACE IS  PRISTINE. NO COLOUR LOSS WHATSOEVER, AND NO MARKS OR STAINS

THERE ARE NO CREASES OR BENDS AND NO HEAVY CREASE LINES EITHER. INCREDIBLY THERE ARE NONE OF THOSE SMALL LINES THAT FORM BY THE SPINE . NONE WHATSOEVER ALONG THE TOP OR BOTTOM EDGES, AND NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE.

THE FOUR CORNERS ARE SHARP AND PERFECTLY SQUARE

THE TOP EDGE IS TOTALLY UNWORN, WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR FULLY RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER ON BOTH EDGES OF THE GATEFOLD. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS IDENTICAL.

THE SPINE  IS STILL TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED. ALL OF THE TYPEFACE IS PRISTINE UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM RIPS ARE UNRUBBED AND PERFECT.

THE OPENING EDGES ARE RAZOR SHARP, AND CLEARLY SHOWS WHY THIS ALBUM HAS JUST NOT BEEN OUT OF THE SLEEVE

THE REAR SURFACE IS PERFECT. NO MARKS OR LINES ANYWHERE. HAS THAT PROMO STICKER IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER

THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVES ARE IN TOP UNSPLIT CONDITION, AND EXTREMELY WHITE

I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS  SLEEVE MINT !!!!

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
